Hakko 936/7 clones: Joho and Madell: What's up with these?
They look like copies of the Hakko - in fact they have the same "936"
model number. I think the Jono 936 sells for $55 everywhere. Any thoughts? Thanks Tom |

Thanks Tom Last time I was at Fry's the real Hakko was only about $25 more, personally I'd just buy the real thing. |

I was happily using an ancient Hexacon 1001 ThermOTrac that gave up the
ghost - it worked real nice on motherboards. I'm waiting to see if it is worth getting repair at Hexacon but I guess that is going to cost more than its worth. I guess I'll have to decide if I'm going to find a cheap, used Hexacon 1001 or spend the bucks for a Hakko. |

I bought a couple Atten units that are identical to the Hakko. The have
worked fine. The tips interchange precisely. I suspect that they all use the same OEM. Leonard "James Sweet" wrote in message news:T%__e.18789$SG3.7572@trnddc07...
